The medicinal product Lecicarbon K CO₂-Laxans is used for short-term application for various causes of constipation. It can also be used to facilitate defecation in certain diseases of the anal and rectal region and for bowel evacuation during diagnostic or therapeutic measures.

It is recommended to use the medicine exactly according to the package leaflet or as directed by the doctor or pharmacist. The recommended dose varies depending on the age of the patient. There are some contraindications to the use of the medicine, e.g. hypersensitivity to the ingredients, intestinal obstruction or abnormally dilated bowel.

The medicinal product contains the active ingredients sodium hydrogen carbonate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate and various excipients such as hard fat, lecithin (from soya beans) and highly dispersed silicon dioxide. The additional volume load due to carbon dioxide formation of the medicinal product is considered negligible. It is recommended to keep the medicinal product out of the reach of children and not to use it after the expiry date. No special storage conditions are required.
